Description:
Surviving a zombie apocalypse beats a dead-end job any day!

After spending years slaving away for a soul-crushing company, Akira’s life has lost its luster. But when a zombie apocalypse ravages his town, it gives him the push he needs to live for himself. Now Akira’s on a mission to complete all 100 items on his bucket list before he...well, kicks the bucket.

Akira and the gang return safely to Earth from their space adventure, but they have one more mission to complete before they kiss Kyushu goodbye—getting ostrich eggs! The group heads to Oita to search a wildlife attraction for the long-legged birds—but this egg hunt proves no walk in the safari park when they encounter a savanna’s worth of critters, and they’re all zombified! The group seems to find a savior in Nora, a fierce former animal caretaker, but this tiger tamer doesn’t have anything nice to say about her own species.
